Ok. I have the check-mark steam key thing going on, I downloaded the full installer. I can log in, choose a "race" of human, then click continue to game. At this point it gets stuck on an authentication load-screen. Any idea what my problem is?

Yes it is still in development, no testing is not open to the public. Issues resulted in them having to rebuild the game in unity which everything is better because of it just not finished rebuilding everything yet. It is however coming along nicely

thanks for getting back on that ..:) So i don,t need to uninstall it..:) ok i will keep checking.....figure it might be worth a try....finding a good space sim ..is lets just say a PAIN...anyway thanks for the reply..:)
